Masked Armed Robber Holds Up Romeoville 7-Eleven Again: Report

ROMEOVILLE, IL — A Romeoville 7-Eleven was robbed at gunpoint … again.

Romeoville Deputy Chief Ken Kroll told The Herald-News that a man wearing a “Phantom” mask and armed with a black handgun entered the 31 Alexander Circle store at 4:53 a.m. Saturday and demanded the clerk to move fast and give him all of the money. The man then took off west and was possibly driving a brown or tan Chevrolet.

A phone message left for Kroll was not immediately returned Thursday.

The man was reportedly black, six feet tall and around 180 pounds. If you have any information contact the Romeoville Police Department at 815-886-7219.

A masked man held up the same 7-Eleven at the beginning of August and got away with $145. Kroll told the paper they do not believe this latest robbery was the same person who robbed the store in August.
